HPD Chief Hurtt held a press conference today and shared some interesting tidbits:
Houston is one of the cities where Taser use by police will be looked at in a study funded by the Justice Department.
Houston Police Chief Harold Hurtt says there are enough questions surrounding taser use to warrant the federally funded study.
“Because there is so much concern about incidents where people have died after being tased that we need to do some extensive research in that area and review policy and procedure and training,” said the chief.
